Care Instructions
Please do wash your cloth before using them. This softens up all of the fabrics so they can absorb. Please do not use fabric softener, this tends to stick to the bamboo fleece and reduces its absorbency. You can use your normal wash liquid or powder and your own stain remover too, but remember out in the sun is a great bleacher. You can dry pale my pads. Dry pale just means popping them in a container with a lid until you do your washing. You can soak your pads in cold water and stain remover. Do try to rinse your pads straight away, but if you cannot, then just pop them in either your dry pale or bag till you get home. But please do not soak for days at a time, as this will cause the fabrics to smell a bit. Just put them in with your normal wash, no special cycles needed. You can wash them out in the shower with you if you wish. Please contact me if you need more drying strips. You can hang your pads from the line, drying rack, or door handle, anywhere you can slip the strip over. Hang your pads from each other and let them blow in the breeze. Bamboo fleece is a super absorber, so on colder days, your pads can take longer to dry. Pop them in the hot water cupboard if you have space. Just be aware that a hot dryer will break the PUL down, so your dry protection will weaken over time. So just stick with a cool to warm dryer. My pads always have a 100% cotton topper. A bamboo fleece core, which also has a layer of PUL for dry proofing your clothing. And a layer of flannelette as the backing, as this fabric tends to help keep them in place, as does great fitting underwear. Please ensure that you let your fluids go on the printed side, this has your core stitched in place, you can see this from all the stitching. The plain flannelette side will not absorb at all.

About Woohoo NANA
I have been working at changing our home to being as close to plastic-free in certain areas as I can. In this journey, I have set up my machines at home and am handmaking things that we need to use around our home. These are the products I handmake.
For our bodies, I make reusable products. Menstrual cloth pads for our women and girls. You can also use the cloth pads for Bladder issues, Incontinence after surgery, as well as after birth.
Ok so, I am a human, and sometimes there will be some wonky stitching. This will not affect the workings of the product. Every product I hand create is Reusable.
Fantastic Re-useable Alternative! I have heavy flow issues and other re-usable products have not worked. These are Absorbent, very comfortable, the domes are completely UN-noticeable and doesn’t bunch up and move around. Highly Recommend! Easy to clean and dry, I honestly won’t have to worry about disposable options again. Thank you 🙂
